KHORNE: BLOODTHIRSTER

The Bloodthirster is the most powerful of all Chaos Daemons
and the most mighty of the Blood God's warriors It is impossible to describe
the true horror of these daemons, for their appearance is enough to drive
a rational man beyond the brink of insanity. Their presence radiates sheer
terror, their body exudes the stink of death, and their eyes carry the promise
of cold execution.

Few who have seen a Bloodthirster have lived to tell the
tale. Those who have confronted the terror and lived will recall an overwhelming
impression of size and steaming energy, of glowing brass armour and blood-stained
fur, and teeth like murderous blades. In is talons the Bloodthisrter carries
an axe that drips with blood and a long lashed tipped with cruel barbs of
fire.

SPECIAL ATTACK

The Bloodthirster does not have any ranged attacks but
in close combat and boarding actions it psyches itself up into a rage and
the Bloodthirster may attack up to four different ships, sea monsters or
flyers that are within 2 inches. When the Bloodthirster attempts to attack,
roll a dice and consult this table:

1

The Bloodthirster is disoriented; no attacks.

2-3

The Bloodthirster attacks normally; attacks the closest
enemy target.

4-5

The Bloodthirster enrages himself; attacks the two
closest enemy targets.

6

The Bloodthirster goes psychotic; attacks the four
closest targets (friend or foe).

BOARDING ACTIONS AND CLOSE COMBAT

A Bloodthirster gets 1 dice +5 in boarding actions and
close combat, as it has 5 wounds.

At the start of the boarding action of close combat, roll
1 dice; on a roll of 4, 5 or 6 the crew is too terrified of the Bloodthirster
to initiate an attack, and cannot use defensive fire.
